Travel Series: What's in my Carry On Bag

Hey guys! As you are reading this, myself, my parents and my sister (you might know her, Deanna from IvoryStormMakeup) are probably about to take off for the US. Gahhhhh I'm so nervous! My carry on was about the easiest thing to pack... apart from the toiletries. Everytime I thought I'd had enough, I'd remember something else I'd need, and eventually the bags were nearly full. But travelling is that - stressful, nervewracking and exciting! I know I always enjoy reading posts like these, so I thought I'd do a super quick post what I'm bringing with me on board.

As you most likely know, there is a rule with bringing liquids, aerosols and gels - they must be under 100mL and contained in a 1L size bag or smaller. Not easy, let me tell you. So these two pictures are the liquids bag, and the 'other' bag (makeup, bobby pins etc.. anything I will need thats not liquid, or don't want to risk breaking in the luggage {e.g. my dear hoola bronzer})

I am so excited for you girl! I think you will really like the US (although of course, I want to go to Australia! Haha :D) and I can't wait to do our swap! Now that you will live here, you'll be a LOT closer and shipping will be LOTS cheaper! I have loads of things I've just swatched & never used, I'm sure you'll enjoy them more than me ;)

Have a safe trip! I travel back and forth to my parent's house pretty often, and packing all my makeup/skin stuff is always such a pain. I can never fit everything I want in my bag, LOL. I think you did really well with your carry-on bag!

My travel on for the USA consists of half of that, ha ha! I would have warned you - roll-on deodorant tends to leak in the cabin. No idea why!! I pack a spray-on for the plane, and a roll-on in my checked baggage.

Great post. I simply stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I even have quite enjoyed reading your blog posts. Any manner I’ll be subscribing for ones feed and i hope you article again before long. Luxury travel
